A sharply melodic electro-pop success from producer Consequential, “LivinLife-NeedU” melds a mixture of dreamy and infectious synth tones with a dynamic vocal spirit. Recorded in the Suffolk, England countryside, “LivinLife-NeedU” moves with replay-inducing immersion as spacey synths adorn vocals that span from chopped-up energy to soaring lushness. The Bury St. Edmunds-based artist cites Sub Focus and Wilkinson as amongst their influences, while noting that “LivinLife-NeedU” embraces “more of a poppy vibe than some of the weird stuff I make.”
While strutting a pop immediacy, there’s also an inventive structural prowess throughout the release’s production. A buzzing assortment of glimmering and hazy synths drive into a debonair vocal entry, lyrically exuding a sense of catharsis and freedom. “Letting go of the past,” they continue, emboldening in the striving to break free from past tumult. Pulsating synth buzzes and glistening adornments accompany a stirring vocal refrain around mid-point, while the two-minute turn dazzles in its emphasis on vocal sampling over rhythmic intensity. “LivinLife-NeedU” is a thoroughly compelling showcase in quality electronic production and songwriting from Consequential.
